Sorry for my poor english.
In windows2000, I want to disable users' ability to delete directories or
files in explorer. I want to use hook to catch the message when user click
"Yes" in the prompt dialog.
I am confusing which kind of hook to use,WH_GETMESSAGE or WH_SYSMSGFILTER?
And I don't know how to find the message that is created when user click
"delete".
I didn't find related code examples in my msdn.
Can anyone give me suggestion on how to do it and give code example?
Thank you very much.

Why not just give them a limited acount., that doesn't have permission
to delete the files/directories in question?

That's not the right way to achieve this goal, since the user :
- can delete via a command prompt.
- can have desactivated the confirmation box on it's explorer.

Use Spy++ to se what happens to the dialog box, but once more time it's not
the right solution to your problem.

Thank you,Serverian.
I know that NTFS can prevent the user from deleting the directory or file.
But it may have trouble if I use Ghost on a disk of NTFS format.
 
Thanks, Arnaud.
1. I can hide the cmd prompt from the user.
2. You mentioned disactived the confirmation dialog in Explorer.
Can you give me advice what way to disactive it?
